The Most Exceptional Experience

This was one of the most professional service we have ever had. We've used 2 different Solicitors before for our numerous property purchases over the years but whilst their services were good, nothing could compare to the level of exceptional services provided by Stephen Rimmer LLP,

Got there in the end

Eventually got the job done. Had to be told to chase. Zero proactivity. Had to stay on hold to talk to my solicitor as did not return calls multiple times and did not receive updates unless chased. Overall the bare minimum was done with little customer service until the last two weeks of a four month process.

Resolution of conflict

Shannen provided clear advice when a company was trying to make me pay a debt for which I was not liable. She liased with the solicitors representing the company, the matter then "went away".

My wife had instructed Anna Clarke previously for conveyancing and found her helpful and efficient. We decided to use her again and instructed her again, this time for transfer of equity. I am pleased we did so. Again she was both helpful & efficient. I recommend her highly.

After hearing solicitor horror stories from just about everyone I know I was expecting to spend loads of time chasing, but I didn't have to chase Jack once - he was super quick, efficient and approachable. Thank you!

Great Experience!

As a first time buyer, the whole process is very daunting. Joe Sheriff was recommended and I can see why. Him and his team kept me updated throughout the whole process and guided me. Will definitely be coming back to Joe for my next purchase!

Sale of my Mother's House using LPA

Noel and his team were as efficient as usual, dealing with the sale of my Mother's house using my Lasting Power of Attorney. From an offer being accepted for the house from cash buyers, to completion of the sale, took 8 weeks and 2 days, and that was partly because we needed time to clear the house between exchange & completion, or it could have been quicker!! I am not local to Eastbourne but the majority of the communication is via email so it's not a problem. Noel also dealt with the sale of my own property last year, so yes I can certainly recommend him.

I had a fantastic experience working with Noel Martin at Stephen Rimmer Solicitors during the sale of our property. Noel was consistently professional and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. House sales can often hit unexpected hurdles, but Noel was always calm, friendly, and understanding during the more challenging moments. His clear advice and steady approach were incredibly reassuring and made a huge difference to the experience. I am very grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend his services to anyone needing a reliable solicitor.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We’re delighted to hear that Noel’s calm, friendly and professional approach helped make your property sale a more reassuring experience, particularly when those unexpected hurdles arose. We’ll make sure your kind words are passed on to Noel – we know they’ll mean a great deal to him. Thank you for choosing Stephen Rimmer LLP and for your recommendation. We really appreciate it and wish you all the very best for the future.
